My links were:
All the default folders of the user:
Documents
Downloads
Music
Pictures
Videos
My Virtualbox build directory
.thunderbird
a note pad directory
an "isolibrary" directory I maintained
Most software like View Your Mind, Calibre and others gave the option to
choose where to save a file which normally went in one of the above.
google I didn't concern myself with because they hold config info and once
the user signs in then chrome takes care of itself usually. Config files I
didn't concern myself with unless, like Thunderbird, had some specific
databases I wanted preserved. Most of the rest was just flare and tweeks
which, tbh, I didn't mind changing up at the time.
Main thing to remember is KISS. This is a simple way to have the normal
drop points of data redirected to the larger drive. If you want a true
separation per user then you might consider an ldap or other similar
solution which maintain user data and options on a specific database and no
matter where they log in then their information and choices are available.
Mine was just a share on how I did things in a similar situation with
drives and is practicable for maybe up to 6 or so users; because of the
manual nature of linking.

They are copies of mountpoints, but not copies of the data.
The /zooty/home directory is still there on my data disk,
and the /home mount point also refers to /zooty/home.
